I guess we should start thanking MS for allowing gamepad support soon. Soon every game they make will be built around KB/M.

 

So even if the magical fix for crossplay against PoC users happens, Console players are still gaming on a completely uneven playing field... in RANKED PLAY nonetheless.  

let's take a look at the current MP pool:

 

Xbone Live:

-PC users 

-Mobile phone users

-Xbox owners with standard controller

-Xbox owners with with elite controller, trigger locks, and extra buttons

-Xbox owners with KB/M razr peripheral

-Streamers

-Nintendo Switch owners * (Coming soon)

 

PSN:

-PS4 owners with standard controller

 

thank you Sony, kings of online gaming, for not diluting PSN.

I hate the idea of cross play with PC due to aim bots in my fave online game Division 2.
